Despite the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio, Ashley Com Consolidated School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Illinois elementary schools, with a ranking between 898-1162 out of 2000+ schools over the past 5 years. The school's performance on state assessments (IAR and ISA) is significantly below the state averages across all grades and subjects, with only 25.7% of students proficient in ELA and 23% proficient in Math, compared to the state averages of 41.2% and 28.4%, respectively. The school's performance is particularly low for certain student subgroups, such as White students and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, who rank in the bottom 25% of Illinois elementary schools in these categories. Additionally, the school has experienced high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 5.5% to 16.8% over the past 5 years, which is generally higher than the state average.

Interestingly, the nearby schools, such as Schiller Elementary School, Tamaroa Elementary School, and North Wamac Grade School, generally perform better than Ashley Com Consolidated School on academic measures, with higher proficiency rates and higher state rankings. However, some of these nearby schools also have higher rates of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, which may contribute to their lower performance compared to the state averages. Despite the higher spending per student at Ashley Com Consolidated School, the school's academic performance remains significantly below the state averages, suggesting that simply increasing funding may not be the sole solution to improving student outcomes.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
